This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled rds: prevent dereference of a NULL device in rds_iw_laddr_check to the linux-3.11.y-queue branch of the 3.11.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.11.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.11.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 42d5bc8f56708039f16aa8a047f9c8d007bf69e7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@oracle.com> Date: Sat, 29 Mar 2014 20:39:35 -0400 Subject: rds: prevent dereference of a NULL device in rds_iw_laddr_check commit bf39b4247b8799935ea91d90db250ab608a58e50 upstream. Binding might result in a NULL device which is later dereferenced without checking. Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
